With "returning to 60s or 80s standards of technology", do you mean repairability and great build quality? That would a great step towards a circular / no-waste

With "returning to 60s or 80s standards of technology", do you mean repairability and great build quality? That would a great step towards a circular / no-waste economy :)
- nomel 4y ago> repairability and great build quality Maybe build quality of the assembly, but definitely not the build quality of anything mechanical! Modern cars have ludicrously better reliability than anything from the 60's to 80's. A car not making it to 100k miles is a rare exception these days, even with somewhat abusive upkeep.
- kwhitefoot 4y agoEvery car I have ever owned (9 so far since 1975) went far beyond 100k miles, even my 1965 Mini van that I bought in 1975 for 65 GBP. But I agree that the newer cars were much more reliable.
